			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been a few weeks that I&#8217;ve completely stopped using social media services Facebook and Twitter. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m missing that much. Well, may be a few tea time laughs and giggles, a few emails/IMs/a face-to-face chat that&#8217;s about not being able to understand tweets <img src='http://engwar.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' />  I can recall a very few birthdays and even less number of phone numbers from my memory. Now that the Facebook account is gone birthday calendar is no more.</p>
<p>Twitter, being the 140 char twat it is, forcing me to come up with less words as possible was slowly making my blog defunct. I wanted to blog more and this twat was getting in the way. Bye bye.</p>
<p>With Facebook, I was logged into find out that a number of my friends are &#8220;at work&#8221;, &#8220;bored&#8221;, &#8220;had lunch&#8221;, &#8220;saw a parakeet&#8221;, &#8220;just farted&#8221;, &#8220;still at work <img src='http://engwar.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> &#8221; etc&#8230; along with a number of silly youtube videos. An hour or so later when I hit the logout button, I&#8217;ve gathered invaluable information about the online presence of five hundred odd people. I know many of you love Facebook to keep in touch with old friends. It&#8217;s great if you like it. One of those things that just not for me. Too much information.</p>
<p>More time to spend with dead and not so dead trees. Books and ebooks. A lot of people I know prefer books over ebooks. I prefer reading PDFs more than a book in my hands. Partly maybe, the effort you have to take for turning a page is far far far more less! Convenience being the other major factor where you can have hundreds of books without every taking an inch on your desk! Speaking of which I wonder whether Sony has released the Daily Edition &#8230;</p>
